Talk:Carlyle Group

To complete your article about The Carlyle Group, I would add the swiss website Stop Carlyle ! in french and in english. This is the only website totally dedicated to monitor The Carlyle Group. European governments don't welcome The Carlyle Group. They fear to see this fund introducing their defence sector (Bofors, Qinetiq, FiatAvio, Arianespace...). Germany and France are the first to elaborate laws and decretes to protect their key sectors from such funds. For more informations : http://stopcarlyle.isuisse.com

relocated from article:


 * Tony Blair -- joins in an unspecified capacity (DemocracyNow, August 24, 2005)

the democracynow (url) page for the day states:


 * Report: Tony Blair to Join Carlyle Group - In news from Britain, the Sunday Mirror is reporting that Prime Minister Tony Blair is expected to join the U.S.-based investment giant Carlyle Group after he leaves Downing Street. Nicknamed the Ex-President's Club, the investment firm already has on staff former President Bush, former British Prime Minister John Major and former secretary of state James Baker.

Amy Goodman hearsay, based upon a Sunday Mirror story that states an expectation of Blair joining Carlyle is a bit thin, and I was unable to locate the Sunday Mirror article in question, as Gooman's site did not link it.
